From Asia to Latin America, journalists are increasingly being harassed, imprisoned and even killed for pursuing the truth wherever the story takes them. In this edition of Update-1, Broadcast/Podcast Team Co-vice Chair Adam Konowe interviews Rachel Oswald, chair of the National Press Club’s press freedom team, and Dagmar Thiel, team member and head of the Latin American press freedom advocacy group Fundamedios.
